Hello Sweet Sketch Wednesday, Followers! This is Judi posting for you this week.

I love this time of the year when I begin to decorate for the Christmas Holiday. Last weekend we put up our outdoor Christmas lights and began the decorating process on the inside. It is so fun to transform our home into a winter wonderland with remembrances of the Birth of our Lord and Savior.
I hope you enjoy the upcoming weeks of Christmas and your family traditions and if you feel you don't have any traditions...create one this year! By all means, enjoy your family and spend some special time together.

Our sponsor this week is the fun and fabulous Sassy Cheryl's. So many adorable images, you really must check 'em out!

"Hi everyone! Sassy Cheryl here and I’m so happy to be sponsoring the Sweet Sketch Wednesday challenge this week.

I have been creating graphics and have licensed my work to companies such as Kohl's, Hobby Lobby and Shopko, among others, for over eight years. I started creating digital images about twelve years ago. I absolutely LOVE to draw and always carry a small sketchbook for those times when a bit of inspiration hits. It's been a lifelong dream to become a working artist, and besides deadlines, I LOVE everything about what I do! It really helps that I have a very supportive husband and son (they also can be my biggest critics!)

Through the digis I create, I’ve met so many wonderful, talented ladies. The projects they make using my images makes it all worth it. ‘Can’t wait to see what you will create with my Sassy images."

Sassy Cheryl's is offering our winner a $5 gift certificate for her store! Thank you so much for sponsoring us this week!!

Sweet Sketch Wednesday Sketch #179-109

With our Sponsor

Stampfairy

I do hope everyone had a fun time with your families for Halloween and you didn't eat too much candy.

Now for our American followers you have Thanks Giving coming up on the 4th Thursday in November. For someone that doesn't celebrate Thanks Giving it must be like having a practice run and a lead up to Christmas. It's hard enough preparing for Christmas without having Thanks Giving to prepare at this busy time of year. When you wake up you'll also find out the results of your Presidential Election.

Happy preparations everyone.
